A weak week for switch software? Thats certainly not true ;)

An attach rate of <1.45 is certainly not "strong," either.

With no new releases (lets mot count nba). They all do well. If you want to talk about a certain aspect sure but those titles are the definition of legs (mk8d/botw/splat2/arms)

OK guys, the 150,000 for GTS is no good compared to previous games:

GTS 5 First Week: 430,000
GTS 6 First Week 204,000

    Nice week for PS4 with the GT sales(Im assuming thats a good number for it) and its bump for the hardware sales.Weak week for Switch and its softwares, but Im assuming thats because Nintendo is stocking for next week.

    A weak week for switch software? Thats certainly not true ;)

    Ok fine, its not weak, its more meh.Maybe its because of the lower number of Switch sold, but Splatoon is the lowest it got(even if its legs are incredible), and every other game sales is low(even if, again, the legs are good).

     

    Its just that, by comparison, the PS4 had a much better week.Yes, its mostly because of the new releases, but it dosent change the fact that this week its much better compared to the Switch.

    Not that Im worried mind you, given the game that is releasing this week.



    My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.
